If I were casting my dream mobster flick, Christopher Walken would definitely have to have a role. Who is your favorite movie mobster actor?
I would say Joe Pesci...Just because we hung out together at a strip club in Scottsdale. :D
That is an excellent reason! Too cool :cool:Quote:

Al Pacino.
Hands down.
I could never get straight what order you were supposed to get the babes, dough, and power in.Quote:

I wish they would bring back The Untouchables tv series. It wasn't the most honest depiction of Gangster life, but I enjoyed it On the otherhand, I also grew up watching the original Batman shorts, before the TV series. It was black and white, and he was battling mobsters. They had the huge black classic cars with running boards, so six guys could hang on and ride outside with Tommyguns. Robin had big curly hair too.
I'll have to go with Robert DiNero as well.
CASINO is an awesome movie!
Al Pacino was one of the great actors of his generation...then the 80's happened and he became a 1 trick pony...I call it the Scarface Syndrome...somehow he never quite let that character go.
But the best mobster has to go to Richard Grieco in the classic "Mobsters". I mean come on...it's a brilliant performance.
Scarface pretty much closes the book for me.
I agree!Quote:

"Fly Pelicans!"
- Scarface, coked out of his mind, watching flamingos on a nature show...
Me and my friend used to just blurt that line out for no reason,
to crack each other up...
FLY PELICANS!
You need to review it, to get the accent right though...
It's not as funny without the accent!

Too bad James Cagney isn't still alive.
James Cagney was great! Have you ever seen "Public Enemy", with James Cagney and Jean Harlow!! Excellent!Quote:

Harvey Kietel
just about the whole cast of 'Miller's Crossing'...
Albert Finney was brilliant, I think the guy's name is John Pollitro the one who played 'Johnny Casper' the italian gangster... and his main henceman 'Eddie the Dane'...whooaaa, that actor was too perfect... hahaha...
Gary Busey. I love that crazy asshole.
Humphrey Bogart (if he were still alive)
Chad Linberg... he would make a great mobster lackey..
Unfortunately i don't know how to put in slinky-link's (if someone could tell me how.. that would be awesome.. but i don't want ot sound stupid either)
I'd say Al Pacino and Rober DeNiro, all of the gangster movies I've seen them in have always been a great one.
Mr Morden. played by actor Ed Wasser.
Jean Reno’s character Victor the Cleaner.
definetelly Al Pacino
Robert De Niro. He's my favourite actor, and he's very good in any mobster flick. Anybody seen Goodfellas?? Amazing. And I'm not a huge fan of Joe Pesci, but he was also very good in Goodfellas.
But yeah, I have to go with Robert De Niro. He just astounds me all the time, I love him.
who's your favorite movie MONSTER actor?
Bela Lugosi, Lou Chaney SR., I really like all the old monster actors... from b4 the 1969... I am thinking about starting a classic monster film company..
Mine would have to be Marlon Brandow. original godfather.
There is a Hindi Movie called "The Godmother". I love Shabana Azmi. She is like the Hindi version of Sophia Loren...she is like 60 and looks 25. Beautiful!
I say, cast Shabana as God'mother'.
:)
The Godmother?? How cool is that!!!
